- Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (one of Europe's greatest composers of classical music)

On August 24, 918 in the continental calendar, more than 200,000 well-equipped soldiers were neatly arranged under the Dianjiang platform in the fourth main fortress group of the Sunset Fortress Group in the eastern part of the Tianlong Empire.

"Soldiers, some of you are from the Standing Legion, some are from the City Defense Army, and some are from the Royal Legion, but no matter where you come from, you have only one true identity, and that is the Imperial Soldiers who protect the Empire!"

"The fortresses of Sunset Fortress have fallen one after another, and several provinces in the eastern part of the empire have been invaded and plundered by orcs, which is a disaster for the empire, and it is a shame for every one of our imperial soldiers!

The Marquis of Rundstead's angry shouting made all the soldiers in the audience lower their excited heads, especially those whose homes were in the eastern part of the empire, and their faces were full of sadness.

Think about it, with the ferocious and furious nature of the orc warriors, how could the people living in the fallen provinces be spared, because of their own inaction, their parents, wives and children misfortune, is there anything more tragic in the world?

Seeing the angry look on the faces of these soldiers and their clenched fists, Bai Feng had to admire the Marquis of Rundstead's methods to improve morale, you know, everyone in the fortress was completely ignorant of the situation outside the fortress.

In other words, the Marquis of Rundstede's mouth that 'the eastern provinces of the empire were invaded and plundered by orcs' was simply made up by him, and it was a good deal to use a lie that no one could distinguish between truth and falsehood, and arouse the hearts of countless soldiers to fight to the death.

Of course, it is impossible for other generals to imitate the Marquis of Rundstead, because there is no general in the empire who can compare with the status of the Marquis of Rundstead in the hearts of ordinary soldiers, and this is the biggest support that the Marquis of Rundstead can use this means.

"Today, we will raise our weapons and launch the fiercest attack on the orc army outside the city, let us use the blood of the orcs to avenge our families, wash away the humiliation of our defeat, and reforge the prestige of our imperial soldiers!"

"Kill!!!Kill!!"

The shouts of killing that resounded in the sky represented the high morale of the countless soldiers under the general's platform; just as the so-called mourning soldiers will win, the Marquis of Rundstead turned more than 200,000 soldiers into mourning soldiers who were not afraid of death in just a few words.

"Kill all the orcs!" Taking advantage of the high morale, Bai Feng on the side raised his arms and shouted a new slogan.

"Kill the orcs!"

"Kill the orcs!"

"Kill the orcs!"

......

The 200,000 people raised their arms and shouted, the movement of which was almost like a thunderstorm in the clear sky, and even the orc army outside the fortress was shocked by the shouts that reached into the sky inside the fortress, and they immediately became vigilant.

"Borg, Upadama, Gianno, Giscar, Danilo, Sania, the six will obey!"

"The last general!" the six generals who were named strode to the point and stood tall under the stage.

"The six of you, immediately lead your respective armies to all parts of the fortress to prevent a possible attack by the orc army!"

"No!" the six men immediately turned around and walked towards their respective armies.

After giving the order to the six generals of the defending army, the Marquis of Rundstead consciously stood back in place, and then Bai Feng took a step forward and gave an order to the other generals who were standing still:

"Aetius, in half an hour the vanguard cavalry will take the lead, and they must tear through the defense line of the orc army in one fell swoop!"

"No!"

"Hans, López, the Seventh Wing and the Assault Wing follow the vanguard cavalry to attack, be sure to open the breakthrough passage!"

"No!"

"Bernard, Ranocchia, D'Ambrosio, Bella, Totilla, once the passage is opened, your armies will break through in turn, and if anyone disobeys the order and acts on the way, I will send a team of overseers to kill them on the spot!"

"No!" Of the five, only four answered, and the unhappy-looking Marquis Bernard did not say anything.

"Before I officially break out of the city, I still have five military orders to announce. As soon as the words 'kill on the spot' were uttered, Bai Feng felt that the bodies of the soldiers in front of him trembled significantly, so he struck while the iron was hot and announced:

"On the way to break through the siege, if there is a person who does not obey the order, kill him on the spot! If there is a person who acts without authorization, kill him on the spot; If there is a person who escapes from the battle, kill him on the spot! If there is a person who is afraid of the battle, he will be killed on the spot! If there is a person who is ineffective in combat, he will be killed on the spot!"

Five 'kills on the spot' in succession made all the soldiers under the stage instantly silent; perhaps because he also felt the cruelty of these five military orders, Bai Feng took out an unprecedented benefit as soon as he announced the military order:

"I know that each of you is a warrior who is not afraid of death, but you have family members to worry about, so I promise you: every warrior who fights bravely to fight the enemy, I will give you fifty gold coins to fight out of the siege, and I will give you a hundred gold pensions for your family members who die in battle!"

The sudden surprise made all the soldiers present forget to cheer, and even they couldn't believe what Bai Feng said, after all, it was fifty gold coins and one hundred gold coins, which was more than a soldier's salary for twenty years!

"Follow the general to the death!" Hans, who was the first to react, immediately raised his arms and shouted.

"Swear to follow the general!" "Swear to follow the general!" "Swear to follow the general!" ......

With Hans taking the lead, the soldiers below shouted this new slogan one after another, and at this moment, Bai Feng's status in the hearts of these ordinary soldiers instantly surpassed that of the Marquis of Rundstead, and the role of money was undoubtedly revealed at this moment.

The large-scale expedition ended with Bai Feng's prestige soaring; there is an image of doing what he said in the past, and no soldier will question Bai Feng's goodness, as for whether Bai Feng can come up with such a large sum of money, no one among the ordinary soldiers thinks about it at all.

The defending army, under the command of the Marquis of Rundstead, marched into all parts of the fortress in order, while the main army was fully assembled near the Dianjiangtai to wait for a breakthrough, and the vanguard cavalry stood by at the gate of the fortress, followed by the 7th Wing and the Assault Wing.

The 1,000 green-suited knights of the Warlord and the systematic troops of the Pro-Guard were all gathered behind Bai Feng, and Ivan and his shadow killers were scattered among the soldiers of the Seventh Wing, and when the Seventh Wing slaughtered the fortress, the shadow killers were about to carry out their mission.

Also hidden in the Seventh Wing are the five Flame Sword Saints led by Bai Yi, the high and low cooperation between the Flame Sword Saint and the Shadow Killer is the key to Bai Feng's successful breakthrough of the army, otherwise the orc army is not so easy to deal with.

Accompanied by Hua Mu, Bai Feng stood on the wall of the fortress and waited for the battle to come; looking at the countless orc warriors outside the fortress, Bai Feng, who had made a breakthrough plan with his own hands, felt palpitations, and he could imagine how dangerous the upcoming breakthrough battle was.

At eight o'clock in the morning, as soon as the time for the vanguard cavalry to attack arrived, the hornmen who had already prepared on the city wall immediately blew the incomparably passionate horn to go out of battle, and with a loud rumbling sound, the gate of the fourth main fortress made of fine iron slowly opened.
